Just curious to see if many people on here purchased this? There hasn't been much talk of it at all.

I've subscribed for 1st "Diamond" collection in March. Received canadian coin (Queen&prince Philip) which I liked (picture and quality). Almost 3 months later haven't received any further coins but was able to see how some of them look... and I did not like them. Considering 0.925 purity for some of coins and $100 price and total lack of public interest (i.e. investment value => bullion) I cancelled subscription.
Now I don't have a case for the canadian coin (and no regular COA), but $1090 (for the remaining coins) will be spent much more efficient :)

I stay away from all royalty coins now I find I just cannot sell them for enough to make a profit.

I dont see much demand at all for this set. I'll wait to get this at cost if it looks nice complete, or maybe below cost...who knows

The only coin in this set that looks remotely interesting is the one from samoa. The .925 silver in most of the coins thats taxable will also turn off a lot of people.

I have the $275 jubilee 3 coin set on order which is more interesting and is a better value.

Did not purchase any, personally I have no interest in them and haven't talked to anyone who does.

Yah I don't get it too. Just who is buying these coins anyway. The only one I like is the one with the crystal in it. Otherwise far to many coins for this subject. OVERKILL might be an understatement.

No interest in this set at all, four too many Diamond Jubilee commemorative coins IMHO
